Todd tells the story of how he came to share his life with pit bulls. For Todd, it all started 14 years ago at a grocery store:
"I picked him up, put him inside my coat pocket and went into the store. I bought dog food and treats, all the while thinking, 'What am I doing?' I walked through the store thinking this little guy needs me, but I didn’t realize until later how much I needed him as well."
